Canada’s #1 tribute to Shania Twain is coming as part of Sudbury Performance Group’s Her Northern Voice music festival. Book now to ensure your spot!

 

“A special, memorable show!”

Donna Huber’s childhood was not a typical one. Her father was in “Retail” and was transferred frequently. Because Donna traveled often as a child, this type of life became normal for her and she continues to travel to this day. Now performing as Shania Twin, the top Shania Twain tribute.

After leaving home, Donna settled in the small village of Thessalon, Ontario. She resided there for 3 years and was extremely successful with her small bakery business which she operated from her farm house situated on 160 acres of land.

She then moved to Sudbury to live and work with her sister. It was here that she was surprised and pleased to receive compliments from strangers commenting on how she looks like “Shania Twain”. Even Shania Twain had commented that after seeing a poster of Donna, “I thought that was me!!! Donna is the best ‘Shania Twain tribute out there.”

Donna put in countless hours practicing to sing like Shania, watching her videos over and over, studying to emulate her moves and the way she presented herself.

Donna met with an agent in the music business and after listening to her sing, and not to mention her uncanny resemblance to one of country music’s most beautiful and successful women, it was obvious that Donna was about to embark on something that would change her life forever.

They worked to put a band together, practiced for a few months, and the rest is history. Donna has been on the road since March of 1996 as the most successful Shania Twain tribute Act in Canada and throughout the United States and Europe.
